Walking down the sidewalks of Roland Park and Middle East, you can clearly see an inequality between their neighbourhood resources and the implications of the communities’ respective histories. Whereas Middle East seems to be experiencing a period of revitalization, clearly spearheaded by the nearby Johns Hopkins institutions, Roland Park portrays a stable, deep-rooted past of affluency. These physical conditions impact the wellbeing of residents and thus fall under the umbrella term of social…

Bensenville has spent millions of dollars to fight the expansion but due to some…

Individuals were trying to create a business for themselves in the town by divulging in the idea of a “self-made” man (Man, Lecture Sept. 3). Each individual store and business played a pivotal role in providing for the town. The image wanted to capture the essence of the town and it showed people that the town could provide for people’s needs.

was a symbol of the town’s old southern heritage. As the town progressed forward, Emily Grierson and her, “eyesores among eyesores” of a house kept the town from truly advancing as a post-civil war society. Even as the newer generation came into authority, Emily refused to acknowledge them. This tale is portrayed from the perspective of the disgruntled towns folk as they gather and reminisce about the mystery that is Emily Grierson. The towns people’s scrutiny, gossip and memories of Emily…
